The first picture is an email I got earlier this month (2/6) I noticed the odd wording and punctuation of the email, so I went through my application and saw that I had never applied for a job w this company. I knew it was a scam and ignored it, and I messaged the person on LinkedIn whom this scammer was impersonating to let them know it was happening lol. Fast forward to today (2/28) and I get an email shown in the second picture. I had completely forgotten about the other scam earlier this month, but I followed the same thought process lol. Saw the weird wording, couldn’t find any history of applying for the company on LinkedIn so i searched “Executive Assistant” in my email, and that’s when the email from 2/6 came up. I can’t believe it’s literally the same exact wording. It’s obviously the same scam but two different companies. It’s really sad how bad this kind of stuff has gotten. Some people who are newer to the workforce might not pick up on little red flags, especially when you look up the company and the recruiter whose name is signed , and you see they’re a real company and that’s a real person. I could see some job seekers just thinking the person writing the email has bad grammar or something but still feeling like it’s legit because they “validated” it. What do these scammers even want out of us? I wish there was something LinkedIn could do about stuff like this but it’s probably out of their hands in some situations.
